THICK white smoke from exhaust pipe? whats wrong?



first attempted start of the season after winter. I coditioned the tank, replaced old fuel and added stabilizer. replaced fuel petcock and fuel hoses. changed to k&n air filter, changed oil, changed spark plug wires and plugs. double checked all replacements and repairs. bike starts normal with coke on. idles around 4000rpm. thick white smoke comes from exhaust after about 60 seconds and engine starts to die if i rev up throttle bike back fires around 8-9000rpm and dies out. done this about 4 times now to no luck. what could this be? any help would be great. bike is a 2000 suzuki gsf600 bandit with 4 carburators. no work on carbs have been performed.

Blown head gasket. Check to see if there is oil in the cooling water in the radiator.
i wouldn't waste too much time checking for oil in the cooling water; it's not water cooled.

You overfilled the engine oil.
Carbs need to get rebuilt and syncronized
could be the fuel is too ripe. take it to a mechanic.
thats japenese enginering for you
